Patient Testimonial
10 out of 10 recommend! From the first day we stepped foot in Dr. Shah’s office we could feel the amount of love and care him and his team give to their patients. Our fertility journey wasn’t easy but this clinic went above and beyond to make sure it was successful.

I switched to SGF because of our first visit with Dr. Shah. He has great bedside manner, clear communication, manages expectations, and has a great staff. He is very proactive with your healthcare and makes you feel cared for. 

Dr. Shah embodies the epitome of excellence in IVF treatment. From the moment you step into their clinic, you’re greeted with warmth and empathy, setting the tone for the transformative journey ahead.

During the vulnerable and challenging experience of going through infertility treatment, Dr. O’Hern was caring, honest, and supportive. She listened to our concerns and questions with care. She was approachable while speaking to the research in backing her treatment plan.

Dr. O’Hern, her nurses, and the entire staff at Shady Grove Fertility are the best. Dr. O’Hern provides a wonderful balance of realistic statistical medical advice and compassion in her approach to treatment. She is so supportive and helped me navigate the most important journey of my life so far.

The entire staff at SGF were amazing, but Dr. B was a vital part of why I would choose this clinic again. She was extremely personable, calling with any and all updates & even making sure to be there when we had a scare very early on in my pregnancy.

Q&A

I love women’s health and focused on that area in my graduate program. I chose to work in reproductive medicine because of the opportunity to be a part of a patient’s family-building journey. I take joy in so many aspects of my job, especially being able to provide education and support to fertility patients in different phases of treatment. I feel I have a unique role to be present with them as they go through difficult circumstances as well as the chance to celebrate their successful moments. After working so many years in this field, I have also gotten to see such an evolution in all that we can offer patients for improved outcomes. It has certainly been a privilege to experience so many growing families and help encourage them along their journey. 

I enjoy staying active and spending time with family and friends. Tennis and pickleball have been great outdoor activities that have kept me busy on the weekends. I also love music and attending local concerts–Country music and 80’s cover bands are some of my favorites! Most of all I really appreciate time with my family whether it is cheering on my daughters’ sports teams, playing board games, or traveling to different parts of the country to build new memories together. 

I appreciate true crime mysteries and watching the next episode of a “Whodunnit?” show. I love getting to know the characters and plot and deciphering the evidence until I have finally guessed the villain!
